Check out my post on the NYTimes.com about exclusive access to Rome’s Cultural sites during the upcoming Culture Week. From April 16 to 25 all state run museums and most city sites will offer free admission. As an added bonus, several places not typically open to the public will have guided visits. You can read the full post here.

Just missed out on what looks like a great opportunity to see some of the hidden treasures of Roma! Will have to plan better next yr. Great post.

Yeah, exactly the week I chose to go motorcycling in Puglia – and I live in Rome, so I have no excuse. Mind you, if this volcanic ash has its way, and my friend doesn’t get in from the States, that’s the end of that, and I’ll be consoling myself with some rarely-seen frescos and the like.
